High Wind Day Keeps Fire Department on Alert

What a blustery day. Who shot an occasional (or constant) look out the window at the sky looking for smoke, or stepped out to see if you could smell fire? High wind days can be nervous days in the country. The Luther (Volunteer) Fire Department remained on alert and reported no fires late today, but were called out on some downed power lines at on Sorghum Mill (234th) just west of Luther Road between 3 – 4 pm. The lines sparked a very small grass fire after a big tree grabbed the lines when it crashed.
